Beverly Hills Hospital:
He anxiously rubbed his hands together as he sat uncomfortably on the edge of his seat. It felt a little strange that this time around, he wasn't the one in the recovery room. Although right now he wished he was.
"Dixon!" called Annie, making her way towards her brother and Navid alongside Naomi.
"Annie," Dixon responded, embracing her.
"What the hell happened? Is she okay?" asked Naomi worriedly. Dixon exchanged nervous glances with Navid. "What? What is it?"
"She's fine," answered Navid carefully. "She's awake. The doctor is with her right now." Annie and Naomi felt as though they were holding back more then they were letting on.
"Tell us what's going on," added Annie, worried.
"Spill," added Naomi strongly. "Don't make me get it out of you." Navid gazed at Dixon.
"Silver," Dixon muttered, fiddling with his hands. "She - she umm...Silver's pregnant."
"Oh my God," Annie spat out, holding her stomach. Naomi covered her mouth in disbelief. "She's pregnant?"
"How is that possible?" asked Naomi, overwhelmed. They all turned their heads at her. "Oh you know what I mean, I thought she couldn't have kids?"
"Oh, Dixon," added Annie quietly. "Do you know -"
"I don't know," answered Dixon. "I don't know."

Beverly Hills Hospital:
She quickly sat up and shifted towards the foot of the bed. She could see her friends waiting in the lobby through the slits of the blinds dangling on the window. She fiddled around the room in search for her belongings.
"You should take it easy, Erin," the doctor suggested.
"I'll be fine," Silver murmured, reaching for her shoes.
"You need to get back on the bed," the doctor recommended.
"So what time are you going to discharge me?" asked Silver, totally disregarding the doctor's order.
"Erin," the doctor muttered. "We're keeping you here overnight."
"But why?" asked Silver, irritated. "I'm conscious now. The baby's fine. I don't need to be here -"
"Erin," the doctor began.
"What?" Silver interjected, annoyed. She knew she had offended the startled doctor. She took a deep breath and regrouped her thoughts. "I'm sorry." The doctor wheeled a chair around and took a seat across from Silver.
"What happened, Erin?" asked the doctor.
"I recently found out that I'm pregnant," Silver began, holding her stomach. "And this guy, who I'm with right now, he doesn't know." Silver cleared her throat. "And I want to tell him so bad, and when the time came, I started to feel lightheaded and anxious and then I passed out in front of him."
"Dixon," the doctor muttered.
"Yes," Silver responded. "How did you know?"
"He brought you in here," added the doctor. "I wouldn't worry so much about Dixon's reaction -"
"I think now I'm more worried about passing out," said Silver. "I just recently had cancer and I'm bipolar and I was wondering if what happened to me is connected to my medical history somehow?"
"It's not uncommon to feel lightheaded or dizzy occasionally," informed the doctor. "When you're pregnant, your cardiovascular system undergoes dramatic changes. Your heart rate goes up, your heart pumps more blood per minute, and the amount of blood in your body increases by 40 to 45 percent. What's more, during a normal pregnancy, your blood vessels dilate and your blood pressure gradually decreases, reaching its lowest point in mid-pregnancy. It then begins to go back up, returning to its regular level by the end of pregnancy. Most of the time, your cardiovascular and nervous systems are able to adjust to these changes, and there's adequate blood flow to your brain. But occasionally they don't adapt quickly enough, which can leave you feeling lightheaded or dizzy or cause you to faint."
"So what can I do about the dizziness?" asked Silver.
"The first thing to do is lie down so you won't fall and hurt yourself if you do faint," the doctor answered. "If you're in a place where it's impossible to lie down, sit down and try to put your head between your knees. And naturally, if you're doing anything that might put you or others at risk for injury, such as driving, pull over and stop right away. Lying on your left side will maximize the blood flow to your heart – and thus to your brain. It will likely keep you from actually fainting and may relieve the sensation of lightheadedness altogether."
"Thank God," sighed Silver, releaved.
"It's not uncommon, Erin," assured the doctor. "You also have to remember to get enough food and water in your system, or else you might end up with hypoglycemia." Silver nodded her head. "Also, excessive anxiety can lead to feel faint."
"Noted," Silver replied.
"You need to find a way to release your stress, Erin," said the doctor. "Stress can cause you to miscarry, especially in the first trimester. Try taking a relaxed bath, reading, or taking a walk with Dixon." Silver smiled sweetly and slowly laid back down on the bed.
Adrianna's Tour Bus
She giggled over the article and pressed it against her chest. She smiled and traced the letters with her fingers.
"What's that you got there?" asked Andy from behind.
"Nothing," Adrianna answered immediately. "It's nothing." She folded it up and put it aside.
"It must be something," Andy argued. "You've been giggling over it for hours."
"It's a rough draft of Navid's article about my performance the other night," she surrendered. "It's really beautiful." She proudly handed it over to him. "He got a job in Beverly Hills for a newspaper company -"
"It is beautiful," added Andy. "I'm jealous."
"Thanks," Adrianna blushed.
"No, seriously," laughed Andy. "I wish I had a girlfriend who could write all the good about me. Of course I would need a girlfriend and something good about myself."
"Well," Adrianna began sweetly. "You're an amazing musician. You're a champion when it comes to eating." They both exchanged short giggles. "And believe it or not, you've been the only person on tour that I have felt really comfortable with." He caught her eye and quickly smiled.
"Me?" Andy muttered.
"Yeah," Adrianna answered him, clearing her throat. "You're a great friend, Andy." She stood from her seat and planted a soft kiss on his chiseled jaw. "Sometimes just being present is enough."
Liam's Boat:
She found him laying on his back, shirtless, on the deck of his boat.
"Ivy said you'd be on your boat," called Annie from a distance. She made her way towards a startled Liam.
"Annie?" he muttered uncomfortably, attempting to sit up.
"Did you sleep here?" asked Annie, surprised.
"I think so," answered Liam, rubbing his tired eyes.
"Here, drink this," she offered him.
"Thanks," Liam said in return, taking the glass of water from her. He watched her as she moved closer to him.
"Do you feel a little better now?" asked Annie, concerned. "I could get you -"
"Annie, I'm sorry," Liam murmured. Annie halted and gazed back at him. "I really am. I didn't know what came over me. I had too much to drink. I didn't mean what I said last night. I was being a jerk."
"What was that all about anyways?" asked Annie carefully. "That kiss didn't mean anything."
"I know. I know it didn't mean anything. I just - I just want you to be happy," answered Liam honestly. "I'm tired of watching you suffer through all the garbage that Patrick keeps putting you through."
"I appreciate your concern, Liam, I do," Annie replied, pressing her lips against his. "But next time, just talk to me."
"Okay," whispered Liam, kissing her back. "I love you."
"I love you, too," replied Annie. "Patrick is not worth losing what we have." Liam smiled. "You're the most important thing in my life."
Naomi's Mansion:
Naomi rushed through the front door and headed straight to her room.
"Naomi!" called her father, Charles. She stopped in her tracks and made her way to the living room.
"Hey, dad," she muttered slowly.
"Where have you been?" asked Charles. He seemed busy, filing paperwork and managing calls. "I missed you at breakfast this morning."
"I was at the hospital," answered Naomi. Charles dropped his cellphone on the table and stood up.
"Are you okay?" he asked worriedly. "What happened?" Naomi was taken back, but greatly appreciated the fact the he was worried about her whereabouts.
"No, it wasn't me," quickly answered Naomi. Charles took a deep sigh. "It was Silver."
"Erin? Erin Silver?" asked Charles.
"Yes," answered Naomi. "And she's pregnant."
"Erin's pregnant?" Charles repeated. "Isn't she like fifteen?"
"Not anymore," added Naomi, scoffing. "She's been wanting to have a baby for a while and she had some complications and I just dropped by the house to get some clothes, because I'm gonna be staying with her for a while. Just to make sure she's doing fine and doesn't pass out again."
"What are you going to do about your meetings?" asked Charles.
"Oh crap, I totally forgot," spat Naomi, burying her face in her hands. "Umm -"
"Don't worry about it, Naomi," assured Charles. "I'll take care of it. I'll take care of it all. Be with your friend right now. She needs you."
"Thanks, dad," Naomi responded sweetly, embracing her father. "I promise we'll spend more time together when I get back!"
Adrianna's Tour Bus/Gas Station:
"That's pretty intense, Ade," said Andy.
"Yeah, it was," added Adrianna. "Looking back, I can't believe I did that to my friend. We're okay now, though."
"After all of that mess?" asked Andy, smiling.
"After all of it," muttered Adrianna. "We survived."
"At least you got the guy," Andy murmured.
"I did, didn't I," whispered Adrianna. There was an awkwardness lingering in the air between them. Andy pulled out two bottles of beer from a plastic bag. "Andy, I don't drink -"
"Relax, Ms. Tate-Duncan," Andy interjected. "The beers are for me."
"Oh," muttered Adrianna, embarrassed.
"For you," Andy began, pulling out a bottle of water from the bag. "Sparkling water."
"Thank you," thanked Adrianna.
"And," added Andy, pulling out something else from the bag. "Jelly beans."
"You're amazing!" Adrianna squealed, embracing Andy. She leapt against his hard bodied chest and found herself hanging on him for a while. Andy didn't seem to mind either. She quickly pulled herself away. "Thanks, these are my favorites. It's like you've known me for my entire life."
"Just don't eat them all at once," replied Andy, smiling sweetly back at her.
Silver's Apartment:
"It kind of looked like a jelly bean, to be honest," Silver softly laughed. She wanted this conversation to be as calm as possible. "It was the cutest jelly bean though -"
"How long have you known?" asked Dixon, holding her hands carefully.
"Just recently," answered Silver slowly. She could tell he was wanting more.
"Where you ever going to tell me?" asked Dixon, clearing his voice. She took a deep sigh and wiped her hair from her face.
"To be honest with you, I didn't know if I was," Silver whispered. Dixon took a deep breath. "I found out I got accepted to NYU, then I got news from Dr. Brooks that I was cancer free, and then on top of that I find out that I'm carrying my baby. Everything was happening so fast. Next thing I knew I was in D.C. telling Teddy -"
"You told Teddy before you told me?" asked Dixon, offended. He quickly let go of her hands and slowly moved away from her.
"Dixon," Silver retorted. "I didn't know what to do -"
"How about talking to me about it?" suggested Dixon aggressively. Silver looked away at his change of emotions. "Is that how you see me, Silver?"
"Of course not," interjected Silver, remaining calm.
"We're supposed to be a couple," Dixon began. "We're supposed to get through this together."
"I got scared, okay," confessed Silver. "I thought if you found out, you'd put your career before me and the baby. You're thriving so much in your career, I didn't want to be that person that held you back." Dixon took a hold of her hands.
"Listen to me," he murmured sweetly. "I love my career. But I love you more." Silver held back her tears. "I need you to trust my word, Silver."
"I just thought," she whimpered. "I thought I could do it on my own -"
"Father or not, I will take care of you and this baby," Dixon promised.
"You opened the paternity test?" asked Silver.
"No," answered Dixon. "I know it's my child. I can feel it." Silver took a deep breath. "Unless...there's something else I should know about."
"Dixon," she began carefully. "Umm...before us...you have to understand that"
"No," muttered Dixon in disbelief. "Mark?"
"It happened before we happened again, I swear," explained Silver. Dixon stood on his feet.
"Mark's the father?" asked Dixon, raising his voice. "I can't believe this."
"No! I don't know! I haven't opened the test results yet!" responded Silver. Dixon grabbed his coat and headed for the door. "Dixon! Please! Wait!"
"I need to get some air," added Dixon, leaving her room.
Patrick's House:
Liam impatiently barged his knuckles against the door multiple times, while Annie stood behind him.
"Open the door, Patrick!" yelled Liam.
Patrick swung the front door opened and was startled at his visitors.
"Oh, friends!" he mocked them.
"Try again," hissed Annie.
"Okay," sang Patrick. "Here for another kiss, Annie?" Liam clenched his jaws.
"Don't do it, Liam," Annie muttered.
"How about ten thousand dollars for a kiss on the cheek, hey, Annie?" he mocked her.
"You sick son of a bitch," spat Liam.
"Careful, Court," Patrick replied, motioning them to his front porch camera. "You touch me, I'll send the footage to my lawyers and have you back in prison for assault."
"Why can't you find another person's life to ruin?" asked Annie.
"Because ruining yours' is more fun," answered Patrick.
"Besides beating your ass," gritted Liam. "I'm here to tell you that you're not welcomed, ever, on my property again -"
"Property?" repeated Patrick. "Is that what you're calling your fiancée these days?"
Liam almost threw himself on Patrick once more, until Annie held him back.
"Go to hell," spat Annie.
"I'll save you a seat," Patrick retorted, slamming the door.
Dixon's Beach House:
"How'd it go?" asked Navid, as he watched Dixon enter through the front door.
"Mark sucks," answered Dixon bitterly.
"Mark?" repeated Navid, focusing his attention to Dixon. "Mark's the father?"
"He could be the father," explained Dixon.
"So is he the father or not?" asked Navid, confused.
"I don't know either," confessed Dixon, frustrated.
"I thought that was the whole point of you going over to Silver's," added Navid. "To find out if you are the father."
"Well it started it out like that," explained Dixon.
Silver's Apartment:
Annie, Naomi, Silver, and Ivy sat around in the small space, providing Silver some comfort.
"Then he got really angry all of a sudden," explained Silver.
"Dixon does have anger management problems," muttered Naomi. "No wonder you slept with Mark first."
"Naomi," gritted Annie.
"What?" asked an oblivious Naomi.
"Anyways," continued Silver. "I brought up Mark -"
Dixon's Beach House:
"No way," mouthed Navid.
"She brought him up like it was no big deal," explained Dixon.
"It's definitely a big deal," added Navid. "You guys are brothers."
"And she brought up my career," added Dixon.
"No," hissed Navid.
"I can't believe she would think that I would put my career before her and the baby!" expressed Dixon.
"You can't blame her for thinking that, Dix," added Navid. "Throughout the whole Michaela situation, you were pretty put on about putting your career first."
"This my child we're possibly talking about," added Dixon. "I want to be a part of it's life."
Silver's Apartment:
"I love Dixon, I do," confessed Silver. "But I love this baby more."
"I understand," muttered Naomi.
"And I've been wishing for this day to happen," added Silver. "This is what I've been hoping for."
"NYU?" asked Ivy.
"NYU," repeated Silver. "...a normal life and this baby."
"If Dixon is the father, Dixon should be a part of this baby's life if he wants to, Silver," suggested Annie. "Don't take that away from him."
Dixon's Beach House:
"I want to be a part of that child's life, Navid!" expressed Dixon.
"I hear you," answered Navid.
"Growing up in different foster homes," began Dixon. "I barely recognized what a home was. What a family looked like." He paced around in his living room. "But when my parents and Annie took me in, I knew from that moment what it was like to love and to be loved by someone. And I want that child to feel loved."
"Tell her," suggested Navid. "She needs to know."
Silver's Apartment:
"I am going to love this baby," added Silver. "I'm going to give it everything it deserves."
"Of course," added Naomi.
"I don't want my child to grow up in a household like I did," explained Silver. "I'm going to make it better."
"But what?" asked Ivy.
"I want NYU," confessed Silver. "I want a normal life -"
"Silver," interjected Annie. "You're pregnant and you're barely turning twenty two. There is no such thing as a normal life anymore."
"What are you saying?" asked Silver.
"I think what Annie is trying to say," Naomi began. "Is that you have to start thinking about this baby. A lot." Annie nodded her head. "And that you're choices might be limited -"
"They have housing for single mothers," mentioned Silver.
"How about Dixon?" asked Ivy.
"You can't just pack up your bags and move to New York," added Annie.
"Why not?" asked Silver slowly.
Adrianna's Tour Bus:
Adrianna and Andy traded laughter as he smoothly strummed his guitar to show tunes.
"I love that one!" confessed Adrianna, placing jelly beans in her mouth.
"That was my favorite show growing up," added Andy.
"Me too," added Adrianna. "I used to watch it with my mom in the mornings."
"What about your dad?" asked Andy.
"Oh, um," Adrianna began. "He was never really around. It was just my mom and me for the most part."
"Same," confessed Andy. "My dad left my mom and me when I was little." Adrianna licked her lips and gazed in awe of Andy. "Don't really remember him for the most part. That's okay."
"I'm sorry," whispered Adrianna.
"That's okay, you don't need to apologize," Andy chuckled. "I used to think I was the problem. I missed him a lot growing up. But then you grow up and you -"
"You just stop," finished Adrianna.
"Exactly," added Andy, smiling shortly. "You just stop." Adrianna's heart skipped a beat. "And you move on. Life takes you on this wild journey and here we are many years later." Adrianna laughed. "Drinking beer to show tunes and eating jelly beans -"
"Delicious jelly beans, I must say," added Adrianna, giggling.
"Which you have stuck to your teeth," laughed Andy.
"Oh my God," laughed Adrianna, quickly covering her mouth. "This is so embarrassing!" Andy laughed louder. "Stop laughing!" She couldn't help but to not care anymore. She laughed until her stomach hurt and her eyes cried joyful tears.
Naomi's Mansion:
She snuck up behind him and planted a kiss on his cheek.
"Thanks, dad," she muttered carefully.
"For what?" asked Charles, removing his reading glasses.
"For being here," explained Naomi. "For taking care of my work for me -"
"Thank you, Naomi," Charles sweetly interrupted.
"For what?" asked Naomi, confused.
"For giving me a second chance in fatherhood," explained Charles.
"To be honest, dad," Naomi began. "I never thought this day would come." Her eyes gathered a pool of tears. "The day I could be your little princess again." He pulled her towards him and sat her down on his lap.
"How about I make some pancakes," suggested Charles. "And we'll watch a movie together." Naomi smiled. "And we'll catch up until the sun hits the sky. How does that sound?"
"It sounds perfect," muttered Naomi.
Annie and Liam's House
"You are the perfect man, Liam Court," said Annie happily, organizing her wedding planner.
"And you are the perfect bride to be," responded Liam, leaning in for a kiss.
"I can't believe you arranged the caterers, and the florists, and the venue," Annie began, overwhelmed. "I know you've been working hard, Liam. Let me help you -"
"Everything will be fine," assured Liam, pulling her hair away from her eyes. "Trust me."
"Okay," added Annie, resting her face on his hand.
"Just worry about your dress," Liam began. "Your shoes, your bouquet -"
"What have you got hidden in your sleeves?" asked Annie, comfortably sitting on his lap.
"Nothing," said Liam, smiling. "Just worry about the things a bride should worry about."
"That's everything, Liam!" laughed Annie.
"Trust me," assured Liam again.
"I do," responded Annie. "I trust you with my life." She leaned in and kissed him passionately. "I don't know why, but I am so turned on by you right now." She began kissing him again. She ran her fingers through his hair and thrusted her body against his. She reached for his belt and unbuckled his pants and began to undress him.
"Do you want to do this right now?" asked Liam, kissing her back. "I thought you wanted to wait again until we got married -" He laid her gently down against the couch.
"Don't talk, just kiss me," Annie breathed heavily, panting against Liam's body.
Silver's Apartment:
"Dixon?" she muttered carefully, opening the door for him.
"I was wrong to walk out on you before," explained Dixon, staring back at her. "I guess it's what I've been used to when I was growing up."
"What are you doing here, Dixon?" asked Silver.
"I want to let you know that I'm here," he said to her sweetly. "And I'm not going anywhere."
"Dixon," she whispered.
"I want to be a part of your life," he confessed. "And the baby's, too." Silver took the paternity results from the opened envelope from her hands and showed them to Dixon. "I want to be with you if you let me -"
"Your the father, Dixon," Silver whispered.
"I'm the what?" muttered Dixon, taking the results.
"You're the father," Silver repeated again, smiling joyfully.
"I'm going to be father?" repeated Dixon happily.
"You're going to be a father," repeated Silver once more, joyfully falling in his arms. "You're going to be this child's father." She gently grabbed his face and softly kissed his lips. Dixon then bent down and kissed her stomach.
